Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, who has faced his own legal challenges, was present in Manhattan to support former President Donald Trump during his hush-money trial. Paxton, a longtime supporter of Trump, described the trial as a 'sham' and a 'travesty of justice.' He was seen entering the courtroom behind Trump and took a seat in the front of the gallery, near Eric Trump. Paxton's presence is notable given his recent impeachment ordeal involving allegations of bribery and misconduct.
